The business is currently in its third generation of family ownership. Bill Etscorn Sr. started the business with Marathon Oil in 1947, opening a one-bay station at 18th and Oak Street in Louisville with partner Joseph H. Ball. In 1951, Bill Sr. bought out his partner and became the top tire, battery, and accessory dealer for Marathon Oil in the 1950s. In 1960, he became a Phillips 66 dealer at Klondike and Hikes Lane, moving the business there in 1961. Bill Jr. joined his father after returning from the Vietnam War in the early 1970s and bought the company in 1979. That same year, the property at 3935 Bardstown Road was purchased to open the current auto service center. Today, Bill Jr.’s sons, David, Bryan, and Brent, run the service department, maintaining the high standards set by their grandfather and father.

The team is committed to staying current with today’s technology and providing close attention to detail. The shop employs ASE-certified suspension experts who can detect problems and recommend necessary steps for shocks and struts. Specific service offerings include full service semi-synthetic and full service synthetic oil changes. The business also provides free wheel alignment with any tire purchase, helping to reduce tire wear and maximize tire life. Customers can contact Josh Charlet to inquire about custom fleet pricing and packages. The service center is open Monday through Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., with Saturday and Sunday closed.
